compare pink wheels

t2hbunny · 08-31-2008, 05:14 PM

I finally have my Landyachtz DH race. Right now i have Sector 9 Goddess 9 ball wheels 76mm 76a on there. the ride is soo smooth

but, naturally being a gurl, i want pink wheels

so i was thinking about the zigzags, powerballs or pink polka dots. I want a smooth riding wheel that can at least get me over a twig <~~ bad experience

~~ that i can cruise , carve, have controlled sliding yet also have a wheel that doesn't slow me down much. any suggestions??

Pink bigzigs for grip
Pink Powerballs for slide

Pink Powerballs definitely.

Go with the pink powerballs.

Welcome to the fish.

i have powerballs, and they are fun. they slide super smooth

powerballs would be uber low. pink bigzigz sound good

So.... 1.5 mm of ride height means UBER low ? ? ?

and pink bigzigs ARENT a good idea if she wants something that will slide smooth.

Also look at the 7-0s in the pink line. ZigZag shape, but the non reflex 'thane. Still pink though, and will provide more grip than a powerball, but at the same time be much smoother of a slide than anything in the reflex formula pink.

Wow~it's been forever since i've last been on

all work & no play :'( umm, if i get either of the 2, powerballs or 7 o's. they both take 10mm bearings. now i kno that the parts for skateboardin are all the same & u dont have to change them but for these wheels am i goin to have to upgrade to 10mm or can i stay w/the 8's that i have?

No, not the bearings are 10 mm, the spacers are 10 mm. You can use your standard bearings with the pink wheels, just buy a set of 10 mm spacers for a few cent.

You can dye wheels fairly easily (I have heard). You should try dyeing some flywheels because big flywheels were made for the DHR.

I might try this weekend cuz i'm doing some major board restoration. Ill send you the pics if i figure it out.

just about any wheel will get you over a twig. im guessing you were just lacking the speed then

I think there may be a set of pink gumballs for sale in the buy/sell forum. I have a set and have found them to be very smooth. If you really want to slide, go with the powerballs. If you have your heart set on nice mellow cruising I suggest the 7-Os or those gummballs. (they dont make them anymore so finding a good set is tough) Good Luck!
